Buildout Versions Checker
=========================

|travis-develop| |coverage-develop|

Parses a `zc.buildout`_ file containing a ``versions`` section of the
pinned versions of the eggs, and checks if any updates are available.

Usage
-----

If you use the practical convention to pin the versions of all the eggs
used in your buildout into a file, you will find this package useful for
checking if any newest version of the eggs are available on Pypi.

Here an example of a version file: ::

  $ cat versions.cfg
  [versions]
  Pillow                          = 2.0.0
  pytz                            = 2012j
  South                           = 0.8.1
  django                          = 1.5
  django-tagging                  = 0.3.1

Now let's execute the ``check-buildout-updates`` script: ::

  $ ./check-buildout-updates
  [versions]
  Pillow                          = 2.1.0
  pytz                            = 2013b
  South                           = 0.8.2
  django                          = 1.5.2

You can now update the ``versions.cfg`` file accordingly to your needs.

Options
-------

::

  usage: check-buildout-updates [-h] [--pre] [-s SPECIFIERS] [-i INCLUDES]
                                [-e EXCLUDES] [-w] [--indent INDENTATION]
                                [--sorting {alpha,ascii,length}]
                                [--service-url SERVICE_URL] [--timeout TIMEOUT]
                                [-t THREADS] [-v] [-q]
                                [source]

  Check availables updates from a version section of a buildout script

  positional arguments:
    source                The file where versions are pinned (default:
                          versions.cfg)

  optional arguments:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit

  Allowed versions:
    --pre                 Allow pre-releases and development versions (by
                          default only stable versions are found)
    -s SPECIFIERS, --specifier SPECIFIERS
                          Describe what versions of a package are acceptable.
                          Example "package:>=1.0,!=1.3.4.*,< 2.0" (can be used
                          multiple times)

  Filtering:
    -i INCLUDES, --include INCLUDES
                          Include package when checking updates (can be used
                          multiple times)
    -e EXCLUDES, --exclude EXCLUDES
                          Exclude package when checking updates (can be used
                          multiple times)

  File:
    -w, --write           Write the updates in the source file
    --indent INDENTATION  Spaces used when indenting "key = value" (default:
                          auto)
    --sorting {alpha,ascii,length}
                          Sorting algorithm used on the keys when writing source
                          file (default: None)

  Network:
    --service-url SERVICE_URL
                          The service to use for checking the packages (default:
                          https://pypi.python.org/pypi)
    --timeout TIMEOUT     Timeout for each request (default: 10s)
    -t THREADS, --threads THREADS
                          Threads used for checking the versions in parallel

  Verbosity:
    -v                    Increase verbosity (specify multiple times for more)
    -q                    Decrease verbosity (specify multiple times for more)

Buildout integration
--------------------

You can easily integrate this script into your buildout script to
automaticly find and write the updates. ::

  [buildout]
  parts                   = evolution

  [evolution]
  recipe                  = zc.recipe.egg
  eggs                    = buildout-versions-checker
  scripts                 = check-buildout-updates=evolve
  arguments               = '-w --indent 24 -s django:<1.8 buildout.cfg'

With this part into your buildout, a new script named ``./bin/evolve`` will
be created. It will check for the available updates of the eggs listed in the
``versions`` section of the ``versions.cfg`` file, then write the updates found.

Python compatibility
--------------------

Buildout-versions-checker has been originally developed for Python 2.7, but
has been ported and tested for Python 3.4 and more.

Since version 1.10.0, the project compatibility start from Python 3.7 and more.

Requirements
------------

* packaging >= 16

Extras
------

Buildout-versions-checker also provides extra scripts for simplify the
maintenance of yours versions files.

``indent-buildout``
===================

``indent-buildout`` is designed for just (re)indenting your buildout files.
Because the buildout files are sometimes mixed with spaces and tabulations
which may affect viewing and editing. ::

  $ ./indent-buildout buildout.cfg versions.cfg

``find-unused-versions``
========================

``find-unused-versions`` just check if your have not pinned eggs which are
not used in your installation. For better results, run the script after a
full and fresh install. ::

  $ ./find-unused-versions
